Which outcome occurs in Mughal pietra dura inlay when excessive soluble salt crystallization occurs within a humid environment?

A)Material strengthening occurs over maturation
B)Color pigment shifts to cooler hues
C)Delamination of stone inlays occurs
D)Increased thermal conductivity is observed

Delamination happens because the mechanism of salt weathering pressures the interface between the different stones and the matrix due to repeated crystallization. Therefore, the stone layers separate slowly; rather than becoming tougher, enhanced in color or conducting heat.
